We did paint a pot last year which was very popular, then a party tea at ours , then they all went outside to play on the trampoline (on a dark Feb night ) it went really fast (had them all from end of school till 7pm.

Most of DS friends now take a few kids to frankie and bennies, pizza hut or an expensive buger joint in our town or go bowling/cinema that sort of thing and then some playtime at their house until about 7 ish. Works really well for us!!

Last year I gave DS a choice of paint a pot, going out to somewhere like conkers/zoo/eureka/magna, going to his fave indian restraunt or cinema and a sleep over and set amount of kids to fit budget as some ideas cost alot more than others. He decided on paint a pot.

This year he doesnt want a party as he says he is too old (he will be 9)

Our local beauty salons do sleep over kits for girls parties, face packs and lots of giltter that sort of thing!!

A girly sleepover would be cool, maybe a few films for the girls to watch, some games, singstar, karaoke?

There's also the idea of a a cocktail sleepover, obviously alcohol free, but little girls love the brollies and pretty straws!

A little person disco! If you have a big room in your house get some little flashy lights and some music and have a little disco. Or bowling with a few or her close friends. Or a fancy dress party

I did pizza hut for kate last year with 5 friends, this year she is 10 and will be having a sleepover. Its not for another 3 weeks but god am i dreading it!

Its hard at this age because there not all grown up yet but definatly think there to cool for most stuff thats still there age.

I think a sleep over is an excellent idea

We have had:-

Bowling
Day out with one of her friends at Alton Towers and stayed in the Alton Towers Themed Hotel over 2 days
Horse Riding Day
BBQ and pool party with games and a sleep over (although in Spain so the weather was better for the pool party and we had a pool then!)
Hired a room and had a magician and inflatables and face painting
Ice Skating party
Water Park Party in Benidorm (again we lived in Spain so not so easy in the UK)

Just a few suggestions

thanks all!! Can't really have a sleepover as the house isn't that big plus Harrison isn't a great sleeper sometimes

We'll probably have a disco with a party person there? doing games etc
